(2) 2003 Mini Coopers $1000 Is it worth it??

I'm considering buying two first gen 2003 Mini Cooper S's for $1000. A friend of mine is selling them and needs space.

The First Mini is in good driving condition but has frame damage to a front end accident. The frame will need to be pulled out by an autobody shop. This Mini is Pure Silver w/Lapis Blue interior. The interior is in good shape and has the Premium, Cold Weather, and Convenience Packages. The exterior is in ok shape. It will need a new hood and bumper and the paint has faded and needs work. Overall its a pretty solid mini. It runs and has a non-salvage title.

The other Mini has no engine. It is Electric Blue Metallic w/ Lapis Blue Interior as well. The interior is in great shape and has a lot of MODS. It look like a MINI enthusiast owned this car. It even has a Borla exhaust Catback still left on the car. It also sports 18" Wheels, lowered springs, clear taillights, and a few other suspension mods. This one also has a clear title.

If I combine the two over the winter I think I'll have a pretty sweet Mini, but is it worth it?

I'll try to post pictures tomorrow.

Cheers,
James

Oh hell yes!

But I have an extra engine, so I'm bias.

Either way, parting them out you'll make that back.

Good luck
